The Habs will have little presure on them for this game, but if they can pull off a win EVERYBODY is going to take notice. It's great to be cheering for a real contender again!

Pretty different than the last time the NHL was around...almost a page of posts for the game thread and still about 30 hours to go till the game...impressive :/)

RDS (Houde or Pedneault) said that Emery should be getting the start against the Habs, as Murray was pleased with his performance last game and that he wants Emery to play in 30 games this season...so it's possible we won't see the Dominator again (we should take advantage for that)

Greatly different situation than when we faced the Sens two weeks ago. Then, the team was 3-0, feeling pretty confident, got a hero's welcome and got hit in the face with the best team in the league. Yet, we still kept it close.

Now, we've continued with our solid play, despite two losses and many late-game goals causing us to lose the game. It's not only confidence with the Habs no, but it is the belief and expectation that we can dance with any team, any night.

Theo will be pumped. Kovelov and Koivu will shine.

I expect Zednick to be pack and I expect it to be something like this:

Zhog Koivu Kovelov

Dags Ribeiro Ryder (they kept saying he needs to go the net and score, that's what he did, so they need to give him some chance)

Zed Bonk Bulis (imagine bulis' speed with zednik...who do the sens cover, bulis who can breakaway in a split sceond or zednik who can shoot the lights out)

Higgins Plekanek Begins

gives us a solid 4 line combo again...but who sits, streit or komi...my guess..komi, even tho i'd rather not.

:ghg:

Some people say that having Zed on the third line is a disaster, I disagree. I think it's a great idea.

I think a Zednik Bonk and Bulis line is really a 2nd line. and Maybe it will help Bonk get on track in terms of point production.

However I disagree that Dags will get another shot on the second line. i think you may see Higgins there or Plex once again.

All in all, Sundstrom won't be back so Dags will still be in the lineup, after last game, I think Streit will sit this one out.

I see it being this way

Zhogs Koivu Kovalev

Zednik Ribeiro Ryder

Bulis Bonk Begin

Dags Higgins Plex

If something doesn't work, imo you'll see Zed down to the bonk line and Plex back up, and Begin to 4th.

I think with Streit sitting and Zed back you may see Koivu playing the point on the PP

All my opinon and I'll leave it to Julien, but i thought i'd get it off my chest

plausible lines, but it might make more sense to play:

zhog-koivu-kovalev

zed-rib-ryder

bulis-bonk-plek

dags-higs-begin

or flip pek and higs so

a) Higs can get some minutes for a bit

B) easier to throw plek on 2nd line if Zed has trouble

I think you are right. Zed is just coming back from injury but needs to play on a line that can score. The Number 1 line has played together for a few games now and the Habs are winning. No sense messing with success.

This is really good news for the habs to have a provin goal scorer back in the line-up in Zednik!

I'm thinkin the lines will look like this:

Perezhogin Koivu Kovalev

Zednik Ribeiro Ryder

Bulis Bonk Dagenais

Higgins Begin Plekanec

We should give Dagenais a chance with Bonk and Bulis....They can look to Dags for the big shot by using their speed and openin up the offensive zone for him...We all know that Dagenais can put the puck in the net!

i like these lines the best of the ones that have been posted because it keeps the top line together and reunites the fourth line which was great before.

also there has been a lack of a finisher on the third line with everyone playing relatively well offensively but not putting the puck in the net. bulis can skate with the puck and along with bonk set up dags for the finish, its worth a try........and if dags doesnt work out here sundstrom will soon be back to reclaim his spot anyway.
